Chapter 1515: Chapter 1522: Her Space, Her Past Life (5)

This sense of helplessness and terror that couldn’t be touched or participated in swept over him, and what frightened him even more was the possibility that, since she could arrive here, she might also leave mysteriously, depart from him, and vanish from this world forever…

Nangong Yi’s breathing became rapid, and he could only instinctively hold Cai Wei tighter, even tighter.

“Yi, you’re squeezing me too hard, be careful of the baby!”

Upon hearing the soft call from the woman in his embrace, the man’s restless heart gradually calmed down. He slowly loosened his arms, yet habitually buried his face in the nook of her neck, nuzzling against her like a pitiable puppy that was about to be abandoned, conveying an indescribable longing.

Cai Wei was actually anxious when Nangong Yi held her tight, not knowing what he was thinking, yet she could feel his intense emotional fluctuations. She dared not say too much to excite him, so she could only quietly and gently wait.

Now that she felt Nangong Yi’s emotions had settled, Cai Wei raised her gleaming eyes and looked at him steadily, asking, “Yi, is there something you want to ask me?”

Nangong Yi’s body moved slightly as he drew the yingluo from his embrace, his gaze deep and locked on her, yet he said, “Cai Wei, tell me honestly, will you leave this place? Will you, like when you came, mysteriously travel back?”

“I won’t!”

Cai Wei interrupted him, extending her hand to trace his handsome brows, and said with emotion, “Once, I had a chance to return, but I gave it up. Because here, I have the man I love most, my Dad and Mom, my younger brother and sister, and now, our children. No one can make me leave you all, unless I die…”

At this moment, Cai Wei was expressing her true innermost feelings; she was deeply moved by him, to utter confusion. She hadn’t expected that his first question would be this one; she had thought that the first thing he would be most concerned about, would be to ask if she had been married and had children in her past life. But she didn’t expect that what he cared about the most would be whether she would leave!

The panic in his eyes was so evident, Cai Wei instantly understood, love at its utmost, love to such a depth, the first thing he always cared about was you, the person, rather than anything else. When love is profound, no storm can batter that love, even a sea of mulberry fields changing into a blue ocean or descending into hell cannot alter this persistent and profound love.

Nangong Yi’s love for her penetrated to the bone marrow; it was not showy and anxious, but composed and considered, tolerant and understanding. It wasn’t just lip service, but genuine sincerity and consideration that came from the bottom of his heart. Even if the whole world abandoned her, he would always stay by her side, never leaving.

After answering his question, Cai Wei couldn’t help but choke up, feeling that in her past and present lives, her existence was to meet him, and time traveling was to receive such love, to meet him and form a home.

Cai Wei’s answer was like a royal pardon to Nangong Yi, who drew a long breath. In a lifetime, to find someone whom one deeply loves and who equally loves back is incredibly rare. He had found it, and knew that he would own this emotion forever, never to lose it, feeling an instant surge of joy in his heart.

In his joy, he did not forget to remind her gently: “Madam, I have never broken any promise I made to you, and you too must keep the promises you’ve made to me.”

Cai Wei nodded gently and leaned onto the man’s body. At this moment, her once trembling and chaotic heart gradually calmed down. She wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head against his chest. Once her emotions stabilized, she began to speak: “I come from a highly advanced technological and cultural space-time, a completely different world from here. There, people value equality, and the supreme ruler of the country is no longer an Emperor but a President or Chairman chosen by the citizens themselves. Moreover, in our world, men and women are equal, practicing monogamy, and women can also go out to earn money and support the family without any restrictions. Many countries even have women as their highest leaders…”

Cai Wei slowly shared the stories of her original time and space with Nangong Yi, telling him about a world of unprecedented economic and technological prosperity where people separated by thousands of miles could hear each other’s voices using something called a mobile phone, and see each other through something called a computer. Doctors could use an instrument to view a patient’s brain and digestive system, and the sick could have their stomachs cut open and even their brains exposed without dying…

Nangong Yi listened very quietly, utterly fascinated. He simply couldn’t imagine what the place Cai Wei described looked like, where people could openly scold the Emperor, oh no, she said the Emperor there was called a President or a Chairman, and people no longer traveled in horse carriages but in steel boxes with wheels. Their speed could even rival that of a white-furred tiger…

However, not being able to imagine it didn’t hinder his judgment. He could tell that Cai Wei was very nostalgic for her past life’s world. When she talked about something she loved, she showed an air of loss.

Seeing her like this, Nangong Yi lowered his head, gazing down at her in his embrace, and said: “Wei’er, I don’t have those things that you talked about, nor can I give them to you, but whatever I do have, I will give to you without reservation. No matter what you want, I will find every possible way to get it for you, and I will cherish you for a lifetime, to thank you for staying by my side, and for not leaving me.”

The man’s words filled Cai Wei’s heart with sweetness. She bowed her head, caressing her now protruding stomach, with a gentle smile in her eyes, and said: “Before I knew they were coming, I hadn’t planned to leave. Now that they are here, there’s even less of a chance for me to go anywhere.”

Upon hearing this, the man joyfully embraced Cai Wei, and suddenly, as if understanding something, he grabbed her shoulders in surprise and exclaimed: “Madam, what did you just say? They? What do you mean by ‘they’? Are you saying… that you’re carrying in your stomach… is it twins?”

Cai Wei shook her head, her delicate cheeks tinged with playfulness, “No, not twins, triplets!”

“Triplets!”

Nangong Yi almost lost his composure, his handsome face showing immense joy as he clutched Cai Wei’s shoulders, loudly asking: “Madam, are you sure? Are you really carrying triplets?”

Cai Wei looked at the man’s exaggerated expression and couldn’t help but laugh, saying: “I’m just kidding. To conceive twins or multiple births, you need the twin or multiple birth gene, and your family clan doesn’t have such a precedent. Neither does our family. Where would the twins or triplets come from?”

The man’s ecstatic expression froze, his body still in the motion of gripping Cai Wei’s shoulders. After a while, he slowly let go of the elated expression on his face and said: “You little mischief, playing me for a fool, if it weren’t for the sake of our children, I would certainly punish you severely today.”

“Pfft—hahaha—”

Watching the man’s expressions change from ecstatic to dejected, and then to feigning nonchalance, almost like a rapid cycle of emojis, made Cai Wei unable to contain her laughter. Clutching her belly, she laughed loudly and said: “You’ve been fooled again. I am actually carrying triplets, guaranteed genuine with no substitutions!”
